Default Harness suggestions.

I'm considering installing a harness setup and I'm looking for some advice. Without a roll bar are there any which are fairly easy to install (bolt-on) and don't obstruct your rear veiw or sh#t up the interior. I only go to the drags once or twice a season so I'm not sure I should even bother, but I do want to be safe!

Thanks!

Harness bar. B-K, HardBar, Shark

and a 6 point harness system.

However, you may want to read the discussion on safety items on the Auto-X and Road race forum

On the West Coast Corvette site they show the B-K harness as well as the Cross Bar product. It appears to be similar to the Shark. Can you offer any opinion on this?

Thanks!

I like the Arizona Speed and Marine bar that I have. It is hardly noticable and comes with camera and extinguisher mounts. It bolts in to the stock shoulder belt locations and retains the stock belts. It also comes with the mounts for the side and sub belts. This is assuming that you have a coupe, I didn't look at your profile.

When I looked at the pic of the harness on AS&M website, there appears to be a bracket, bolted on between the seats near the counsel. The instructions say no drilling, am I missing something?

Thanks!
